3. Sequence analysis for social scientists- TraMineR is intended for mining and visualizing sequences of states or events. Its primary aim is the analysis of longitudinal data in the social science field but many of its features may also apply to non temporal data such as text or DNA sequences.

4. raster -- spatial data- The 'raster' package deals with basic spatial raster (grid) data access and manipulation. It defines raster classes; can deal with very large files (stored on disk); and includes standard raster functions such as overlay, aggregation, and merge.

5. Interface to use SIMPLACE from R- Package simplace is an interface to the crop modelling framwork SIMPLACE (www.simplace.net). It provides high level functions to run simulations and transform the output into R objects.

7. seriation -Infrastructure for seriation- Infrastructure for seriation with an implementation of several seriation/sequencing techniques to reorder matrices, dissimilarity matrices, and dendrograms. Also contains some visualizations techniques based on seriation.

8. track: store obects on disk- Automatically stores objects in files on disk so that
files are rewritten when objects are changed, and so
that objects are accessible but do not occupy memory until
they are accessed. Also tracks times when objects are created
and modified.

9. scriptests- Support for using .Rt (transcript) tests
in the tests directory of a package. Provides more
convenience and features than the standard .R/.Rout.save
tests. Tests can be run under R CMD check and also
interactively.

14. Spatial dependence- A collection of functions to create spatial weights objects, for summarizing these objects, and for permitting their use in spatial data analysis; a collection of tests for spatial autocorrelation and functions for fitting spatial regression models.

15. surveillance- The R-package 'surveillance' is a framework for the development of statistical methods for the modeling and change-point detection in time series of counts, proportions and categorical data as well as continuous-time epidemic like point process phenomena.

17. libamtrack- This package is the R interface to the open-source, ANSI C library libamtrack (http://libamtrack.dkfz.org). It provides computational routines for research in proton and ion beam therapy.
